Dear Fernando
 
I am writing regarding your request dated 10 October 2014 for information
about Schools located in Scotland including head teacher name, LEA,
Contact details (phone number email address) and Postcode.
 
A request is not valid if it does not, in accordance with section 8(1)(b)
of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA), state the name
of the applicant and an address for correspondence.  As your request
provides only your first name we do not consider it to be a valid
request.  Accordingly, we are not obliged to respond to it.
 
However, if you provide your surname we would be able to consider your
request and respond to it in accordance with FOISA.  If you need any
further advice and assistance on how to submit a valid request, please
contact me.  You may also find it helpful to look at the Scottish
Information Commissioner’s ‘Tips for requesting information under FOI and
the EIRs’ on her website at:

Your right to request a review
 
If you are unhappy with this response to your FOI request, you may ask us
to carry out an internal review of the response, by writing to Bill
Maxwell, Chief Executive at Education Scotland,
[2]ps/[email address].  Your review request
should explain why you are dissatisfied with this response, and should be
made within 40 working days from the date when you received this letter. 
We will complete the review and tell you the result, within 20 working
days from the date when we receive your review request. 
 
If you are not satisfied with the result of the review, you then have the
right to appeal to the Scottish Information Commissioner.  More detailed
information on your rights is available on the Commissioner’s website at:

Yours sincerely
